Using LT1716 as a Voltage Detector

Thread Summary

The user seeks a circuit to monitor a 5V rail using the LT1716 to generate a logic 0 if the rail drops below 4.5V, preventing the switch driver from turning on. The proposed solution involves comparing a reference voltage derived from the 5V rail (P5V) against P5V itself, but the user is concerned about the threshold changing with VOUT. The power supply for the LT1716 is from the same 5V supply (ADM7150). The user also inquires about the minimum Vout of the ADM7150 and the noise level of VREF for RF applications.

I like to use the LT1716 as a voltage detector that self monitor the 5V rail. 

The 5V is coming from ADM7150 5V regulator.  I like to generate logic 0 to turn off the FET if the rail goes below 4V5 so that the switch driver ( operates at 5V) is not turned on.
